You have to enable optional packages:

[matej@luther ~]$ sudo yum list \*freeglut\*
[sudo] password for root: 
Loaded plugins: changelog, rhnplugin
Available Packages
freeglut.i686              2.6.0-1.el6     rhel-i386-server-optional-6

Comment 3 Rick Warner 2011-05-17 22:48:05 UTC
This package is required to build the CUDA SDK.  It should be in the main repo - not an auxiliary one.

Comment 4 Adam Jackson 2011-05-18 21:40:22 UTC
That would be a distribution composition issue, not a bug in freeglut.

Comment 5 Bill Nottingham 2011-05-19 13:56:09 UTC
Simplest fix would be to list this as an optional package in 'additional-devel'.

Comment 6 Dave Airlie 2011-12-14 17:12:24 UTC
not sure how this got back to freeglut, still a distribution problem. Though not sure who gets to edit comps.

Comment 7 Dennis Gregorovic 2012-04-25 18:56:09 UTC
freeglut-devel added to additional-devel comps group
